macaque
    n 1: short-tailed monkey of rocky regions of Asia and Africa

Macaque \Ma`caque"\, n. [F. See Macacus.] (Zool.)
   Any one of several species of short-tailed monkeys of the
   genus Macaca (formerly Macacus), found in rocky regions
   of Asia and Africa; as, Macaca maurus, the moor macaque of
   the East Indies.

   Note: Macaca mulatta is the Rhesus monkey, much used in
         biomedical research, and namesake of the Rh factor used
         in blood typing (due to discovery of that factor in the
         Rhesus monkey).
